1712 - 1418 Analysis
1713 -
171301 - Need major change to Subject Index from concept developed on 981003,
171302 - ref SDS 13 2898 and on 981006. ref SDS 16 5130
171304 -  ..
171305 - This is really a WBS, since there does not seem be one in use on the
171306 - project. ref SDS 7 6266  Can apply experience from WBS work on the
171307 - Richmond Harbor project, reported on 970406. ref SDS 1 0001

171309 -      [On 981012 Bill asked for the WBS. ref SDS 19 6480]

171314 - Denis wants to distinguish scope and work among the JV partners.
171316 -  ..
171317 - I initially tried to create a baseline WBS then to replicate it for
171318 - each of the JV entities, thus...

171321 -      2  Michael Willis
171322 -      3  Kwan Henmi
171324 -  ..
171325 - The problem is that to have a generic breakdown of the work and one
171326 - for each of the JV partners triples the indexing and probably triples
171327 - the time required to maintain and apply it day-to-day.
171329 -  ..
171330 - Whenever a change is made to the baseline, it has to be duplicated for
171331 - the other levels.  This is a huge waste of time, and is actually
171332 - impossible to do, because when time is limited, the mind overlooks the
171333 - need to replicate the structure in all of the potential comparable
171334 - chains of structure.
171336 -  ..
171337 - To save time and reduce the complexity of the organizing structure, I
171338 - am going to eliminate the process of replicating the data structure
171339 - for each of the JV entities, and instead use the "Type" field
171341 -  ..
171342 - This presents a bit of a problem in managing Action Items, because
171343 - these elements can occur commingled within a record segment.  What
171344 - will happen is that some record segments may have action items for
171345 - several entities.
171347 -  ..
171348 - This means that each Action Item needs either a separate record
171349 - segement, or a narrative string to identify who is perform the work.
171351 -  ..
171352 - First, I have to delete all of the duplication.
171354 -  ..
171355 - Another view is that we keep the Interior and Exterior subjects and
171356 - simply go no lower than the identifications in the JV agreement, so
171357 - that we can show in the record where those subjects were performed.
171359 -  ..
171360 - Another view is that we eliminate Interior and Exterior, and use the
171361 - JV agreement scope on pages 10 and 11 of Appendix E.
171363 -  ..
171364 - We could append the responsibility to the Subject description,
171365 - although that is not used for any selections.
171367 -  ..
171368 - So, I have to remove the duplication.
171370 -  ..
171371 - We have also duplicated cost savings.  There is cost savings at level
171372 - one, and we have it also for design.  Instead, we will use the design
171373 - symbol under cost for cost savings at that level.
171375 -  ..
171376 - Same for quality.
171378 -  ..

171701 - I have now revised the record to reflect the changes in the subject
171702 - index.  Only took 10000 hours.
